"Moulin Rouge" co-star, 1952

Answer:

GABOR

Hint:

This Hungarian-American actress and socialite was known for her glamorous persona and frequent appearances on talk shows, often alongside her famous sisters.

Explanation:

The clue refers to the 1952 film Moulin Rouge, where Zsa Zsa Gabor played a supporting role alongside José Ferrer. "Co-star" hints at a well-known actor from the movie, and "Gabor" is her famous last name. Since crosswords often use last names for brevity, the answer is simply her surname.
